The Poetry Brothel: Cabaret Voltaire

In this unusual immersive poetry event, you'll go to a "brothel" where, instead of sexual favors, your "prostitute" will bestow poetry upon you in private or in a cozy corner. Even if you don't take them up on it, you can still watch the burlesque and variety show onstage as the performers pay homage to Hugo Ball's Cabaret Voltaire, that iconic, short-lived center of the Dada movement in 1916 Zurich.
